The virtual member manager commands follow a consistent format.
The syntax for the commands is:
commandName { -paramName paramvalue [-paramName paramvalue] }
The parameter and syntax elements include:
- commandName
- The name of the command.
- { }
- Required braces around the parameters for Jacl scripting and align with
the Jacl syntax.
- { {} }
- Braces within the required braces indicate that a choice must be made
from among the parameters within the braces.
- paramName
- The name of a parameter.
- paramvalue
- The value of the parameter. If the value specified has spaces, for example, my
value, the value must be enclosed in quotation marks, "my value".
- [ ]
- Brackets indicate that the enclosed parameter is optional. (Non-bracketed
parameters are required.)
- *
- The asterisk is a wildcard that can be used in searches. A search filter
IBM* returns all items that start with IBM. A search filter *IBM returns all
items that end in IBM. A search filter *IBM* returns all items that contain
the string IBM.
Each command includes help information, which describes the purpose and
usage of the command. Help
messages describe the usage and purpose of the command. To view the help issue
the following command in wsadmin:
$AdminTask help <commandName>
